 Technical Exercises

Group A: Scales
The major scale should be prepared as shown below. You may select any starting note from A–E. You will be asked if you
would like to sing along to a metronome click or hear four clicks before you start. Whichever option you choose, you will
hear your chosen starting note before the click starts. You may perform this test using any vocal sound except humming or
whistling. The tempo is q =70.

Group B: Arpeggios
In this group, both of the arpeggio exercises need to be prepared as shown below. You will be asked to perform one of them
in the exam, as chosen by the examiner.

This test is performed to a metronome click track and you may select any starting note from A–E. You will hear the root
note played on piano followed by a one-bar (three or four clicks) count-in. You may perform this test using any vocal sound
except humming or whistling. The tempo is q =70.

Improvisation & Interpretation

The examiner will give you a chord sequence in the key of C major. You will hear the backing track three times.
The first and second time is for you to rehearse and the third time is for you to perform the final version for the exam.
Each playthrough will begin with the root note and a four-beat count-in. The backing track is continuous throughout, so once
the first playthrough has finished, the root note and count-in of the second and third playthroughs will start immediately.
The tempo is q =70–80.

You may perform this test using any vocal sound except humming or whistling.
